Heirloom Restaurant at Cape Grace offers a refined expression of South African culinary heritage in the heart of the V&A Waterfront. Inspired by local flavours, seasonal produce and the stories that shape Cape Town and its people, each dish reflects a thoughtful balance between tradition and contemporary technique.


Mornings begin with an elegant breakfast experience, featuring a generous buffet and refined à la carte selection. On weekends, guests are invited to linger longer with breakfast served until 12pm — an indulgent start to slow Cape Town mornings overlooking the marina. By day, Heirloom is a relaxed yet polished destination for lunch in Cape Town, before transitioning into an intimate setting for dinner, where comforting, nostalgic flavours are reimagined with modern finesse.


Defined by attentive service and understated elegance, Heirloom is a signature Cape Grace dining experience, designed to be savoured and returned to.

    The seafood platter was excellent with generous portions and variety. Lorna's service made it a great evening.

    From the outset, ie. booking, arrival & seating, the staff was friendly and helpful. Their attendances were spot-on and presented the food without any delay. Each and every dish was excellent prepared and plated. We had a wonderful morning and found the venue to be outstanding. Kindest regards

    We had breakfast at the Cape Grace for our 34th wedding anniversary. I wanted to spoil my wife. She is on a gluten-free diet for an autoimmune condition and your restaurant is one of the few that offers so many gluten-free options. Thanks to you and your staff for helping make our morning a special one.

    Really Enjoyed the Dinner at the Heirloom. Food was really good, the setting(ambience) was also quite good. Though, I feel the menu can do with some variety - particularly the appetizers/starters. Good experience overall.
